Re: End of round 6 ...PHYTO-ESTROGENS???

March 27, 2008

Hi Robin and everyone,

I also wanted to mention briefly my hypothesis about progesterone

and estrogen (including pyhto-estrogens). Being a man I do not

experience the cyclical swings of these hormones. However it is

widely accepted that these hormones compete with Hg at binding or

receptor sites in the body.

Red Clover, mentioned by mercurybeater is a well know and potent

source of phyto-estrogens. I know from my wife's personal experience

that blending herbal and natural sources of estrogen and progesterone

can powerful influence a woman's health for the positive. What if a

woman's natural cycle (monthly dips in estrogen levels for example)

presents a " less competitive enviroment " for that aggressive hormone

mimic HG?

Another potent source of phyto-estrogens.....SOY. I have not eaten

red meat, pork, lamb, commercial poultry etc... in 32 years. Needless

to say I have consumed lots of SOY! But I sensed that it was causing

me some health problems and an allergy test recently confirmed that I

had immune reactivity to SOY. So in November I began a gradual

elimination diet. Well my sinuses really improved! No more

persistent post nasal drip - gone! But about a month or so into the

elimination diet my aggressive, depressive, anxiousness that I

associate directly with elevated HG levels in brain really ramped up

alot! With chelation it is again much better but slightly worse

between rounds. I am going to try red clover tea beginning after work

and before bed at the end of this round. I believe phyto-estrogens

can be protective to a degree but again this is only a hypothesis.

Red clover tea is pretty benign stuff. Worth a shot I think.

ANDY? Care to comment?
